Timeline

2005

Early in 2005, she was hospitalized for pneumonia and was thought to be severely over trained. This proved to be quite a setback as it took her till the end of August to even be able to start training again. She had two and a half months to go from not training at all to being ready to win at Commonwealth Games trials. She did just that with a gold medal win in the 100-metre breaststroke, qualifying her for the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, Australia. There Lauren won a bronze medal in the 4×*100-metre medley relay.

2004

In August 2004, van Oosten was disappointed with her races at the Olympics, compared to her performance at Olympic trials. At the 2004 Olympic Games, she competed in the 100-metre breaststroke (11th place), 200-metre breaststroke (13th place), and the 4×100-metre medley relay (11th place). Although she had thought she would retire after the Olympics, she felt that she had more in her and wasn't ready to retire just yet.

2003

She qualified and raced at the 2003 World Aquatics Championships in Barcelona, Spain, where she swam in the 100 and 200-metre breaststroke events.

Then in November 2003, at Canadian Open in Quebec, van Oosten broke a 10-year-old national record in the women's 200-metre breaststroke to highlight the third day of competition, with a time of 2:25.47.

2001

She also didn't make the World Championships team in 2001 or the Commonwealth Games team in 2002. She was in a nasty slump and fading out of the Canadian swimming picture. However the 2003 season proved to be a comeback year for van Oosten.

2000

Lauren had a major disappointment when she didn't make the Olympic team in 2000. Up until this point she had been ranked first in Canada, but was only able to manage a 5th-place finish at Olympic trials.

1999

The 1999 Pan American Games were held in Winnipeg, Manitoba, from July 23 to August 8, 1999. Lauren won a medal in all the events she entered which included the 100-metre breaststroke (gold), 200-metre breaststroke (bronze), and 4*100-metre medley relay (silver).

1998

From there she went to the 1998 Commonwealth Games that summer. This meet awarded her a silver medal (4*100 m medley relay) and 2 bronze medals (100 m breaststroke, 200 m breaststroke).

1997

Lauren has been an integral part of the National Swim Team since 1997. Since then she has won a total of 9 international medals (bronze, silver and gold) and has set two Canadian records, one (200 m breaststroke) that still stands and one (100 m breaststroke) that lasted for six years (1998–2004). She attributes much of her success to her coach, Jan Bidrman.

Her first international meet was the Pan Pacific Swimming Championships in Fukuoka, Japan in August 1997. There she came from sixth place to third in the final 50 metres of the 200 m breaststroke race to win a bronze medal. This incredible performance qualified her for the 1998 World Aquatics Championships in Perth, Western Australia. At this World Championships Lauren swam a best time, set a Canadian record and won a bronze medal in the 100 m breaststroke with a time of 1:08:66.
